Sheriff Heath wins order for legal fees in county dispute
Aiken County must pay Sheriff Carrol G. Heath 15000 for costs of hiring lawyer John W. Harte to sue the county over personnel policy. The judge’s Friday order in Aiken County Common Pleas Court could prolong the three year dispute, which began in 1986 over whether deputies are county employees subject to county rules. Heath acted after county officials advised him to seek other counsel, choosing Harte to handle the case when county attorneys recused themselves. The county may appeal, potentially extending the litigation.
